Anyone diagnosed with high fluid levels

Yea when I did the research about the fluid, trou le breathing was a side affect, so it made since. Its been happening for a few weeks now. Are you concerned about the fluid amount and the outcomes that it could lead to? Have you researched it?
I was concerned because I couldnt sleep, and when I went to the doctor he found I had more fluid than normal and when I told him about I’m having a hard time breathing he said it could be because of the extra fluid. He just told me he gone keep an eye on the baby, but didn’t seem to concern. And when I told him how much water I drink, I figured I probably need to cut back. I go back next week so I’ll see if that made a change or not.
It depends on the level if it's mild moderate or severe but it could cause severe issues for baby. My husband got it out from my doctor that worse case scenario it could lead to still birth. Not trying to scare you but it's good to know. Do the research as well. As we have been.
I go for another ultrasound on the 13th and if it's still high or higher there then going to have me go in 2x a week to keep an eye on the baby's heart rate.
If you have the app for your hospital go and check the results of the ultrasound. It will tell you your fluid level and such
Oh okay, well if I’m not mistaken he was like normal is like 8.0 and I was at a 8.7 so maybe it wasnt that severe but I did do some research but I stopped looking once I saw what can happened, I get bad thoughts in my head so I try to stay off google as much as possible. Did you find out what cause it??
Theirs different things that can cause it but 60% of the chance their is no cause. And that must have been for one pocket.
Anything over 24 is high that is all 4 pockets combined. Mine as of yesterday was 25
Being short of breath or having trouble breathing can be normal for pregnancy in general I can't imagine how much worse it would be with extra fluid. I don't have extra fluid but if I cuddle with my husband I feel like I'm being suffocated 😭 good luck, ladies 🥲
Girl yes. I was explaining this to my doctor earlier this week about it. And it’s really bad when I lay down. It’s like I’m suffocating and I have to sit up. But my doctor said it could be because of the extra fluid, I drink a lot of water so I just been watching my water intake especially at night when I’m about to lay down.
